Abstract: Systems and methods for object-based data storage are provided. There may be a read/write cache configured to cache objects to be written to an object-based data storage. A document in the read/write cache may have a lock state set to unlocked, thereby allowing the document to be deleted. Or, the document in the read/write cache may have a lock state set to locked, thereby preventing deletion of the document.

Abstract: Techniques for predictively configuring a cache are provided. A method includes (1) identifying, via one or more processors, a workflow configured to interact with a cache paired to a cloud storage system; (2) predicting, via the one or more processors, an expected input output operations (IOPS) pattern for transactions generated by the workflow, wherein the IOPS pattern is indicative of a proportion of read operations to write operations; and (3) configuring, via the one or more processors, one or more cache management workers based upon the expected IOPS pattern.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a device for removing liquid from solid canned goods such as tuna. More specifically, the present invention is a hand held strainer device which operates in scissor-like fashion and includes opposing, hinged members with one having a can support and the other having a free floating strainer. The device further includes a quick-release, thumb activated ratchet-locking and engaging mechanism.
